"I ran your IQFeed DDE vs. my broker vs. a level II window for some slow-moving options. I would see the level II quote change, then your feed update instantaneously. My broker's DDE, however, would take as much as 30 seconds to update. I am not chasing milliseconds, but half a minute is unacceptable." - Comment from Rob

"You are either overstaffed or people just don't have problems with your feed because customer support always answers the phone quickly." - Comment from Jay via Email

"And by the way, have to say this. I love the IQFeed software. It's rock solid and it has a really nice API." - Comment from Thomas via RT Chat

"I noticed that ******* quotes locked up shortly after the interest rate announcement yesterday while yours stayed stable." - Comment from Ron in Utah

"I "bracket trade" all major news releases and I have not found one lag or glitch with DTN.IQ feed. I am very comfortable with their feed under all typical news conditions (Fed releases, employment numbers, etc)." - Comment from Public Forum

"I've been using Neoticker RT with IQFeed for two months, and I'm very happy with both of the products (I've had IQFeed for two years with very few complaints). The service from both companies is exceptional." - Comment from Public Forum

"I started a trial a few weeks back before the market went wild. DTN.IQ didn’t miss anything and beat my other provider. I decided to stay with you because of the great service through all the volatility." - Comment from Mike

"I am enjoying the feed very much - so superior to the broker provided feed I was previously using." - Comment from George

"I like you guys better than *******...much more stable and a whole lot fewer issues." - Comment from Philip

At the moment it seems this is only possible with 3rd party software (which have limited functionality) in this aspect.

We also offer an API that can be utilized to write your own custom application with the desired functionality. We may also suggest products like QCollector which many of our customers find to be quite feature rich for exporting our data. It isn't out of the question that we will provide the requested functionality in the IQ Feed Core product in the future, however it isn't on our near term roadmap. Please feel free to contact our Sales department in regards to DTNiQ or our custom API at sales@iqfeed.net or (800) 475-4755.

The issue is that QCollector doesn't allow you to define the fields in the ascii file. The fields in the header are fixed. I want to create a futures history file that includes the expiration date of the futures contract in the continuous back-adjusted history.
